The biggest fans of natural cosmetics are no longer afraid of traditional beauty secrets which smell rather strong; like Fenugreek oil, onion oil is making a comeback!

The strongest natural remedies are the ones that work the best, especially for hair growth. This is why at Prodigia, we advise you to include onion oil in your formulations, and we dedicate this article to you to discover all of its secrets.

By its INCI: Olea Europaea Fruit Oil, Allium cepa, onion oil is obtained by a maceration process: a clever blend of onion extract and natural vegetable oil. In the form of a macerate, it is indicated to fight against infections of the skin or parts of the body where it is applied.

1- Stimulate hair growth
Rich in vitamins (A and C), minerals (potassium, calcium, magnesium) and sulfur, onion has many benefits for the hair. Thanks to the sulfur it contains, it stimulates hair growth. Indeed, this ingredient is already naturally present in the composition of the keratin which constitutes our hair, our skin and our nails.
This makes onion oil the perfect star ingredient to incorporate into your natural cosmetic products: oil baths, or strengthening hair masks for growth.

2- Cleanse the scalp
A healthy and clean scalp is also synonymous with hair growth. When its pores are clogged with sebum, dust or residue from hair products, it can slow hair growth. Onion oil helps fight dandruff and cleanse the scalp thanks to its purifying and sanitizing properties. You can mix it with a shampoo base or integrate it into a scalp exfoliating treatment recipe, it can also be used on its own in friction by performing circular massages on the skin of the scalp. Stimulating, it promotes good blood circulation to the scalp. In case of irritated or painful scalp, this oil also has soothing virtues.

3- Strengthen dry and brittle hair
Onion oil will also fight breakage and hair loss. It makes the hair brighter. Some even use it in cases of alopecia to limit hair loss and promote stronger, longer hair. It protects the hair from external aggressions (heat, rain, wind, etc.), which also stops hair breakage. Strengthened, nourished and softer, hair becomes less brittle and disentangles more easily with the help of this multi-use oil.
Plus, onion oil is suitable for all hair types. It is therefore the perfect ingredient to incorporate in a hair growth serum, in a hair mask or combined with a nourishing hair care base.

1-Purify skin with imperfections
Thanks to its antibacterial and purifying properties, it acts on the skin to calm inflammation and cleanse it. This oil is also indicated to promote good healing of the skin and prevent marks and spots that can leave pimples. The sulfur it contains helps fight blemishes. Onion oil is therefore recommended for people prone to acne or who have skin problems. It also helps to nourish and regenerate the skin.
Onion oil can be incorporated into your blemish cleansing gel formulations or into a night cream.

2-Alleviate the pain
It acts as an analgesic, so it can help reduce pain. This ingredient is therefore a real secret weapon for massage oils. This onion oil macerate is also indicated to fight against infections of the skin or parts of the body where it is applied.

3- Strengthen soft and fragile nails
To remedy nails that tend to be easily soft, weakened and brittle, onion oil is the solution. It is made up of minerals and ingredients that are naturally found in the keratin of the nails. It will therefore come to strengthen the nail and nourish it. Fortified, it will be less brittle and harder.
